Air Duct Cleaning and Seasonal Allergies
Whenever springtime is sprung upon us for most the dreaded seasonal allergies are not too far behind. However, what about in your home? Does air duct cleaning help with seasonal allergies? Well let’s take a little bit to explore some common household allergens, with Regal Duct Cleaning, an air duct cleaning company in Baltimore, Maryland. To see how dirty air ducts can aggravate allergy symptoms, and what you can do to minimize allergens inside your home.
Avoid those allergies with proper air duct cleaning
Unlike any chemical and food allergens, most indoor allergens are airborne. A common way that these allergens is spread is through your air ducts; when your air conditioning is running or forced air circulates throughout your home, it allows allergens to disperse.
Over time and left untreated, these allergens can build up in your air ducts, making it harder to avoid allergy symptoms regardless of how well you keep your home clean. If you are wondering whether your air ducts are due for a cleaning, be sure to ask yourself:
- Have you had your air ducts cleaned in the last five years?
- Does you house constantly collect dust?
- Are your allergy symptoms triggered when you turn on your heating or air conditioning?
If any of the answers to the above questions were “yes” than you should probably schedule a cleaning.
Keep your home allergen-free
While a professional duct cleaning is the most effective way to eliminate most allergens from your home, there are several other ways you can minimize an exposure to allergens:
- Clean vent covers and change air filters to prevent the spread of dust
- Use a dehumidifier in warmer months. Humidity puts your home at higher risk for mold growth and dust mites
- Vacuum frequently using a high efficiency (HEPA) filter bag
- Eliminate clutter to slow the accumulation of dust in your home
- Keep doors and windows closed if you’re allergic to pollen
- Properly store and discard food to deter pests like mice and cockroaches
- To prevent mold growth, use your bathroom fan when showering
